Name
Olena Novak
Injury/Illness
Breast Cancer

I was originally diagnosed with breast cancer in my left breast at the age of 29 in 2016. I then was diagnosed with breast cancer in my right breast at the age of 34 in 2020. I had a total hysterectomy at the age of 35 in 2021 due to a diagnosis of ovarian cancer. Most recently in April of 2024 I was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer which metastasized into my bones, head, shoulder blade and eye. Breast cancer has totally affected my life. My daughter was 5 years old when I was first diagnosed. I am no longer able to work at this time due to my treatment I am receiving. Our household went from two wage earners down to only my husband, who is self employed and works when there is work to do. I would very much appreciate being considered for your donation to our family.

Olena continues to receive on going treatment for her breast cancer diagnosis. Olena shared that she was in the emergency room on 12/3/24 and had an MRI and two CT scans. These scans per Olena showed a few additional tumors in her pancreas and groin area. She will be seeing her oncologist NP on 12/6/24 to determine next steps. Olena and her spouse continue to have financial struggles due to her inability to work. She and her husband are looking for less expensive housing which will help but until they are able to do so, they struggle in being able to cover their rent month to month. Donations that could be put towards their rent is what is most important at this time. Thank you for any donations which would be greatly appreciated.
